Hi! A few basics: Whenever DCF-77 receives a bad spike, it needs at least 120 - "time of the spike" to synchronize again. Maybe even one extra minute to be sure. The DCF-77 antenna is directional, so you need to have it turned in the right direction. Unfortnuately it's not easy to find the optimal direction. For the clock hopping: Use "ntpq -p" to find out whether your DCF-77 has a significant offset against the other servers. You'll ahve to minimize that. I'd suggest to capture long-term statistics of the clock status. With the parse driver "ntpq -c cl" should display the statistics.
